has 3 dimensions, <strong> it is made up of a maturity level, a scope level and a delivery level <\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first step in setting up a CoE is to define the level of maturity it will have and coordinate the following aspects:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li class=\"translation-block\"><strong> Construction of automations: <\/strong> It involves the selection and prioritization of candidate processes to be automated, development and implementation of the chosen processes, RPA training, development of the organizational change management program, definition of the government of RPA and coordination of the reengineering of processes. <br> <strong> <\/strong><\/li><li class=\"translation-block\"><strong> Definition of automation execution: <\/strong> It is necessary to ensure that RPA robots run smoothly, continue to identify new automation opportunities, manage changes in production processes, guarantee safety, compliance, and develop KPIs of measurement to analyze results.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"translation-block\">On the other hand, it is necessary to define the <strong> degree of scope that the CoE will find within the organization and in which business areas it will intervene. <\/strong> It implies creating a description of the responsibilities in the definition of the processes on which the center will have input and implementation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"translation-block\">And finally, the CoE must have a <strong> delivery model, that is, a clear definition of which activities within task automation will be developed in-company and which will be outsourced. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">CoE: What are the organizational models<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When setting up an RPA solution Center of Excellence within an organization, there are three organizational model options that can be used to get the most out of it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"translation-block\">The first option is to create a <strong> decentralized CoE. <\/strong> Its features include the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>RPA development through global functions.&nbsp;<\/li><li>Managed standards and policies distributed outside the organization.&nbsp;<\/li><li>Inconsistency in the application of models since each work team is independent and there is no interconnection.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br>&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"translation-block\">The second option is to develop a <strong> centralized Center of Excellence <\/strong> that will have the following aspects:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>RPA resources are centralized in a single location and support for local functions is done remotely.&nbsp;<\/li><li>Less possibility of variations between local functions due to the centralization and consistency of the applied solutions.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/li><li>More in-depth knowledge of RPA technology and greater consistency in the application of standards.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"translation-block\">The third way is to choose a <strong> node model <\/strong> that will be the combination of a centralized and a decentralized CoE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"translation-block\">Whether you choose to develop a centralized, decentralized or node CoE, <strong> this space will seek the implementation of best practices, the creation of standardized processes and the sustained and orderly growth along with a reduction of costs for the organization. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\"
